LOL. No, capitalism is a wonderful thing. Pretty much anything and everything is available if you have the cash. ;D That is just the uniforms and gear I'm using at the moment. I've got several large storage tubs full of the other body armors and webgear that don't get used that often. Mostly my Vietnam and WWII American stuff.

hey, dont feel bad about being out-done by these guys, its like getting struck out by a professional MLB pitcher at a little league game. my war room was originally my grandfathers army trunk, then it moved up to a part of the boiler room in the basement, now its in the process of invading my section of the basement (kinda getting crammed with a computer, tv, pool table, darts, massive purple couch, coffee table, and all those other goodies us americans love). I'll try not to forget to post some pics when it all gets organized.

We built our new house last year with leisure in mind. 2/3 of our basement is finished off as a full blown game room. 8 foot pool table, standup video game console, dart board , card table and full bar on one end and the other end is a TV/video game room. My 'man space /war room' occupies the other third and is behind closed doors. Thats also where I keep all my wargaming miniatures and normal models. The wife doesn't even want to go in there, so I have to keep it clean myself. ;D The cool thing about being 45 and having the kids grown and moved out is that ALL the toys are now mine.

I'm gonna need a bigger room
Btw, this whole thread makes me feel very inadequate.
Btw btw, in case of rebellion ceasing the united states, I'm going to ether Ripper or Schmitty's house. Ditto in the case of starting a revolution

Schmitty.....I'm old enough to recognize most of those games (I always preferred Asteroids Deluxe to Asteroids). That game with the 2 Tommy Guns, I remember playing that in the late 70's and wishing those guns would detach so I could be the baddest kid on the block when we played "Army" in the woods. Awesome "office" Not sure how you get any work done in there though.

Hey Ripper; is that a real M16 sling on your airsoft M16? If so, where did you aquire yours? Ive been looking for one with no luck.

Yup, that is the real deal. The Marines still issue black slings with the old style buckle and clip assembly. I bought all the ones I have at a machine gun shoot in Knob Creek, KY a few years back. Same thing with the sling on the M-249. Got a great deal on unissued black M60 slings. I have one on the airsoft M-249 and another on the real steel M60E3. With my PVS-4 attached the SAW is weighing in at just under 24 pounds, so a rugged sling is a must. ;D

Guys, can we clean this thread up a bit? I'm expecting pictures, not replies! Maybe we can have a room comment thread, those seem to work out very well.

Here's mine but the photo is kind of small as I tried to include the whole thing in one set of photos. I also have a garage that isn't quite as impressive at Schmitty's, but it's in the same league:

Damn, thats something to envy. I'll try to get up a few pictures of my war room tonight. Not as impressive, but it certainly is a little place I like to call home.

Nice room Yankee! My room right now is kind of empty, I sold 99.5% of my Vietnam Gear, and only have 10% of my WWII gear. The rest is enroute, being process, and whatnot, and I should have it by early to mid octuber, and I will be sure to take plenty of pictures. I love that Garand. I think it may be one of 2nd Bat's best!
